[Anthony_E]

Description
This article describes the FortiLink trunk interface which is formed automatically in managed FortiSwitch is not visible on the FortiGate GUI.
Solution

The managed FortiSwitch trunk interface which is manually configured from FortiGate will be populated under Wifi & Switch Controller -> FortiSwitch Ports -> Tab (Trunk).

However, the automatic created fortilink trunk interface which gets configured in a managed FortiSwitch will not be shown in FortiGate GUI: Wifi & Switch Controller -> FortiSwitch Ports -> Tab (Trunk).

Example.

Automatic trunk output from CLI:

access2 # diagnose switch trunk summary 

Trunk Name         Mode                       PSC          MAC                Status       Up Time
